Animal Cookies Strain Information

The name may make this strain sound like a walk in the park. It is pleasant enough in moderate doses, thanks to its combination of euphoric mood-lifting effects and strong sedation. However, newcomers and those with light tolerances should treat Animal Cookies with care due to its relatively high THC levels of up to 25%. Coconut Oil is a strain with similar effects but is not so likely to overwhelm you.

Animal Cookies Aroma

The Animal Cookies strain smells kinda like sweet, nutty cookies and kinda like earth. You’ll also pick up some sour citrus and herbaceous notes with each whiff.

How to Grow the Animal Cookies Strain

Animal Cookies is a clone-only strain that can be a bit challenging to grow, so it’s best to hold off on cultivating this strain until you have at least a little growing experience under your belt. And while you can certainly grow your bud outdoors, this strain prefers an indoor environment, where you can tightly control temperature and humidity levels.

No matter where you choose to grow, you’ll want to use high-quality, well-draining soil to ensure your plants’ root systems get the oxygen and nutrients they need to thrive. You’ll also want to feed your plants on a regular schedule to encourage optimal growth and high yields.

Animal Cookies typically takes nine to 10 weeks to finish flowering, after which it can yield nearly a pound per plant with proper care.
